Vacuum
interrupter
1 2 .
(1) Electrical service lift?
The electrical servic:e life of the vacuum interrupter is defined by the electrode wear the
number of open/close operations (mechanical life).
To determine the electrode wear, measure the gap between the lever and washer
(dimension A) in a closed start , as shown in Figure8. With the vacuum interrupter
closed, if a contact 'wear gauge or a 1 .Omm thickness gauge cannot be inserted ,
this means the end of life is reached.
For the components listed below, replacement or detailed inspection and cleaning
are recommended after the indicated number of operations.
